I teach an intro programming class in Python each fall, and this fall I started an open project to help my students learn Python: http://introtopython.org It's progressing steadily, and people seem to be responding positively to the first project, a tutorial about plotting geospatial data using matplotlib and Basemap: http://introtopython.org/visualization_earthquakes.html The whole project is on github: https://github.com/ehmatthes/intro_programming PS I just accidentally ended a 132-day github streak, mostly focused on this project. I stared watching a movie with my wife last night, and at the end of the movie I looked at the clock and realized I forgot to make a commit before 11pm. No matter, it was never about the streak anyway. :)
